Inside St. Louis Public Radio

Francis Lam’s “Turkey Confidential 2021,” features chefs and food writers with a global mind and skill set who are sharing their love by sharing their recipes for the holiday feast.

Jazz St. Louis and St. Louis Public Radio (STLPR) announce the launch of The Next Set: Live From Jazz St. Louis, a new radio show bringing the improvisational art of live jazz music, performed from the Ferring Jazz Bistro stage, into the ears of listeners across the region.

The station’s signature radio talk show, St. Louis on the Air, brings the stories of St. Louis to listeners across the region and now enjoys additional success as a podcast and newsletter.

Tina Pamintuan has more than 20 years of experience working in public media as a journalist, educator and station leader, and she’ll put her expertise to work in shaping the future of St. Louis Public Radio as its new CEO.

We Live Here is for people who love to learn about the people, history and culture of St. Louis and want to lean in toward racial equity. Listeners hear real stories by and about local people who are building community and inspiring change.

Lauren Brown, host and producer of St. Louis Public Radio’s We Live Here podcast, received a 2021 RTDNA National Murrow Award for her role as host and a producer of the audio documentary, “Black at Mizzou: Confronting Race on Campus.”

Following NPR's sunset of Ask Me Another, award-winning programs The Splendid Table and Radiolab will have additional air times to take the popular radio game show's place.

St. Louis Public Radio (STLPR) is continuing and intensifying efforts to build a more inclusive professional community with a focus on anti-racist principles and approaches, talent management and support. This work is being stewarded by the station’s senior leaders in partnership with the staff diversity, equity & inclusion workgroup, to fulfill our commitment to the vision for change by industry coalition Public Media for All.

In recent years, we’ve evolved from St. Louis’ public radio station to a more dynamic, modern media organization with regional news coverage, a growing website audience, award-winning podcasts, music channels, and conversation-driven social media. As we continue to innovate to reach more people across our region, we needed a cohesive story and visual brand that would grow with us.

St. Louis Public Radio is pleased to announce the promotions of Melody Freeman to Director of Business Administration, and of Jade Harrell to Director of On-Demand & Content Partnerships, who will both serve on the station’s senior leadership team.
